Having two similar communities on the same topic splits conversations, and give posters decision fatigue

Edit: some topics have consolidated their communities to avoid that, example from a few months ago: https://lemm.ee/post/46935805

Edit2: the UK community has a lot of different mod. The .org community only has one, who hasn't been active since 8 days.

I think the community has enough sense to not go crazy about "buy russian gas, is europe!".

I would love to get neat recommendations for British shoes and shortbread, and if people suggest British digital services I'm sure the good people of the comment section will give helpful feedback.
